At Home Exfoliate

July 11, 2013

Hi there,

As promised here is one of my at home facial secrets to reduce puffy eyes, face & cleanse.

Believe it or not I use brewed coffee grounds as a wonderful facial to get rid of puffiness and exfoliate. It is inexpensive and works like a charm. If have over indulged – eaten too much salt etc… and wake with a puffy face. I brew my coffee and than use the cooled grounds as a paste on my face. I am able to get them close to my eyes and really reduce the puffy look. On my face i use just straight – but on my body I mix with olive oil in the shower and it acts a temporary fix for cellulite. It is pretty messy so i usually use while I soak in a bath or sit with a towel under my chin to catch any falling grounds. Relax for about 10 min. than gently splash off with cool water and see how great your skin looks. It may tingle a bit but try and sit for as long as you can. BTW I just read in Natural Living for Women, coffee grounds are antibacterial, giving your face a cleaning while you exfoliate. So give it a try and let me know what you think…..
